It's a fact: "nothing" is written in stone.
It was carved
The "stone" with the words in it has a suspiciously uniform appearance. I wonder whether it might be concrete and the letters pressed into it while wet, in which case basically none of it is true.
It’s stone, not concrete. Likely sandblasted. They use silicone stencils that resist the abrasive particles. It’s how gravestones and other markers are made commonly.
Neat, thanks for explaining!
